Visit a living piece of 18th century Berkshire history, lovingly restored to its 1780’s condition: The Bidwell House Museum in Monterey, Massachusetts.

An elegant example of a Georgian saltbox style construction, The Bidwell House was originally built in the mid 1700’s as a parsonage by the Reverend Adonijah Bidwell (1716-1784) and a visit here tells the story of the early settlement of the Berkshires.

Bidwell House was restored to it’s late 1700’s condition thanks to the hard work of two fashion designers from New York: Jack Hargis and David Brush.
